World War I Poster "Help Them, Keep Your War Savings Pledge" Issued by U.S. Treasury, Extremely Fine. Colorful 30" x 20" poster by Casper Emerson Jr. These posters were issued by the United States Treasury to promote the Victory Liberty Loan. In order to pay for the war effort the United States Government issued a set of five liberty loans. The fifth and final loan was known as the Victory Liberty Loan. Working persons would buy these bonds or war stamps that they could then trade in for smaller denominations of bonds, which at the end of the war would be repaid with interest. A great poster, very evocative. Only some slight cracking to the bottom of this rare poster. Early American will accept payment by check or credit card.
